Beginning early 2019, Lightspeed shut down GlobalTestMarket in some countries, and merged those members into LifePoints. As of June, 2019, GlobalTestMarket panels and members worldwide were fully integrated into LifePoints.

Founded in 1999, Global Test Market is an online survey panel owned by Lightspeed Research, a Kantar groups company. Global Test Market is one of the world’s leading providers of market research and serves clients in more than 60 countries worldwide.

They rewarded their panelists more than $30 million+ USD in 2016 alone! As a panelist, you can earn points for completing surveys that can be redeemed for reward items from over 200 partners, redeem your points for cash via PayPal, or donate your points to charity.

Unfortunately, GlobalTestMarket is no longer operational. Click the button to discover survey panels that are running and are actively looking for new members!

Payment and Rewards

Registration Process

Registering is easy, simple and free. Click the registration link where you will be asked simple questions about you and your household. The results are used to determine which surveys you are a good fit for.

Rewards Information

Each survey takes on average 15 minutes to complete and reward amounts depend on the survey length and urgency.

If you are screened out of surveys, you may be entered into a quarterly sweepstakes competition. For each sweepstakes entry you earn, you will be automatically entered into the drawing and if you are a winner, you will be notified via email. Remember to respond before the deadline provided to claim your prize.

LifePoints

For each survey completed, you will receive LifePoints, which you can accumulate to redeem cash and prizes. Each email invitation will alert you to how many LifePoints you will receive for taking the survey. LifePoints expire 3 years after being awarded the points, or after 12 months if there is no activity on the account.

On April 17, 2017, MarketPoints were discontinued and replaced by these new 'LifePoints' at a 1 for 5 conversion rate. Collected points can be redeemed for many different reward options, which may vary, depending on your country of residence. Rewards can be redeemed once you have accumulated 1,100 LifePoints ($10) in your account. Note that if you have a friend that was grandfathered in from the old Points program, they will be offered slightly different points than those who joined GlobalTestMarket after April 2017.

Community Features

Types of Surveys Offered

Many of GlobalTestMarket’s surveys ask your opinion on movies, restaurant, automobiles, consumer products, current events, and a variety of other interesting and fun topics. You can also download the LifePoints app onto your phone so you can take surveys on your mobile.

Points Expectations

You can expect to earn between 35-250 LifePoints based on the level of complexity or urgency of the survey. Even if you do not qualify for the survey, you may still receive 5 LifePoints..

Option to Give Back

In addition to the great selection of rewards, Global Test Market gives you the option to give back to your community! Unicef charity donations can be redeemed with collected LifePoints.

Refer Your Friends!

You can refer your friends by entering their email when you are signed into your account. If they fill out at least 2 surveys, you also earn points.

Rewards Processing Time

Rewards usually take about 4-6 weeks to arrive if you are in the United States and 6-8 weeks for international panel members.

Eligibility: Residents worldwide, age 14+

Up and down but reliable

February 26, 2017 by Chris from United States

They've had pros and cons over the 5 years or so ive used them. They used to only send checks or let you spend the points online/gift cards, eventually they implemented paypal.

About a year after this they raised the cashout from 1000 points to 1200 and when their surveys used to be anywhere from 30-150 points usually, now they're 30 points 99% of the time.

Again another site I used to love that don't use much if at all anymore still have points left there. Another pro though the whole time I've been there they HAVE NEVER banned me or "froze" my account.

Frustrating, not recommended

February 24, 2017 by Marie from United States

I've been with this panel several years and used to have success with them. Over the past year or so, it's been very frustrating to deal with them. Their payouts per survey are much lower, and it takes a long time to cash out. I used to be able to cash out $50 Paypal each month, but now it only seems to occur every few months. They are not responsive or cooperative whenever I've had technical issues, or if I get an error when completing a finished survey. Their site is extremely slow. I have a lot of log in issues. I stick with them, because I've been with them for so long, but they obviously don't value my loyalty.

Horrible site

February 16, 2017 by Daren from United Kingdom

Got my account disabled before I could cash out for no apparent reason

DO NOT USE

Not "Supportive"

February 10, 2017 by Scottie from United States

I complained that I couldn't access one of their surveys because there was no ARROW to continue with the survey.
Their response: Your request has been solved. To reopen this request, reply to this email. Support Team (GlobalTestMarket)
This was their "solution" to my issue: Thank you for making us aware of the problem you experienced. We apologize for any frustration that our survey may have caused. However, please know, we do our best to make sure our panelists’ survey experiences are positive. But, sometimes technical errors do occur. Unfortunately, due to the issues you are experiencing, you will not be able to complete this survey. Kind regards, The TechSay Team My reaction to their "kind regards" remarks: Aren't you going to try to solve this issue or credit me for trying to complete a survey that has a technical issue, due to no fault of my own? DID NOT SOLVE ANYTHING! :(
